Methyl 6-deoxy-6-iodo-α-d-galactoside
Abstract
In the crystal of the title compound, C7H13IO5, the molecules are linked by O—H...O hydrogen bonds, which build linkages around one screw axis of the cell. These C(5) and C(6) packing motifs expand to R22(10) and C22(11) motifs and are similar to those found for closely related compounds. The galactoside ring has a 1C4 chair conformation.
